I'm currently running an undersized fuge of about 6% of my tank volume with Triton Core 7 Base Elements (full Triton). @Tim2@Triton, you mentioned core 7 supplements might be a better choice when running an undersized fuge (however, that was back when I was running a much smaller reactor which I since removed and converted to a traditional refugium). So far 2 rounds of ICP tests show everything is good with core 7 base elements; however, my tank is still only taking about 5ml per day. As I increase dosage, what elemental buildups should I be looking for in my ICP test to know it might be time to switch from core 7 base elements to core 7 supplements (given the undersized fuge?)

Thanks
